I'm -1 on removing polygon outline by default. In many datasets (think administrative boundaries, cadastral polygons, etc.), polygons share boundaries and the outline is important.
On the other hand, I'm not against improving things by default :) IMHO, we could greatly improve default coloring by avoiding a rgb(0,0,0) outline and instead use a darkened fill color as the outline.
